REPUBLICAN ADMINISTRATION.
Governor Foraker Replies to the Charge
That He Has Been q Republican Gov

That He Has Been q Republican Gov
ernor.
The following from Governor Foraker's
Middletown speech will receive the COM
mendation of most Ohio Democrats:
'But when he comes to discussion of
state affairs-when he Mr.. POWELL comes
to attack my administration of the public
interests, then he is on legitimate ground;
and l stand here ready to answer what
ever Mr.. Powell or any other human be-
ing may say in nature of criticism on that
account. Voice, 'Goodr and applause
In the first place, he says that have
given to the people of Ohio partisan ad-
ministration; that have been guilty of
the heinous crime of putting Repub-
hcans into office when had appointments
to make. Just as sure as you are born
that is true. [Uproarious applause.J If
anybody imagined when 1 was elected
governor that was not a Republican
and did not intend to give to the people
of Ohio Republican administration, he
was mistaken. [Applause and cheers.
l understood the election of 1885 to mean
that the people of Ohio wanted to swap
off that Democratic administration we
had had under Governor Hoad1y and in
dulge for two years at least in Repub-
1ican administration. And understand,
if can judge of the indications have
seen as l have gone over the state, that
they are now of the opinion that they
want to have Republican administra-
ton for the next two years in Ohio [great
applausel, and 1 am not going to ask
them to change their minds on my ac-
count. Applause and laughter
''Now, my fellow-citizens, in respect to
that matter feel just this way have
not much respect for man who, when
his party has put him into office, turns
his back on his party as though he was
ashamed of it. 1 should think better of
Mr.. Cleveland if he had said when he be-
came president of the United States, 4

them decent recognition Inever heard
of Democrat being ashamed of any
thing until Cleveland got into Office

exhibition of Democratic president be-
ing ashamed to recognize his own party

FOOD FRAUDS.

THE SHAMEFUL USE OF LIME AND ALUM
IN CHEAP BAKING POWDERS.
Many food frauds, such as chicory
coffee or watered milk, although they
are a swiudle II commercial sense are
often tolerateI because they do not par>
ticnlarly affect the health of the con
sumer; but when an article like baking
pow der, that enters largely into the
food of every family. and is relied upon
fer the preparation of almost every
meal, is SO made as to carry highly I'M ju-
rious, if not rankly poisonous, elements
into the bread. the entire community is
endangered, and it is the duty of the
press to denOunce the practice in the
most emphatic terms.
Among the important discoveries by
the food analysis is that by Prof. Mott,
the u. S. Government Chemist, of large
amounts of lime and alum in the cheap
baking powders. These are, one the
most dangerous, and the other the most
useless adulterant yet found in the low
grade, inferior baking powders. 1t is a
startling fact that Of the many brands
of baking powders so far analyzed, none
of them, with the single exception of
the Royal Baking Powder, was found
free from both lime and alum. The
chief service of lime is to add weight.
1t is true that lime, when subjected to-
heat. gives off a certain amount of car
bonic acid gas, but quick-lime is left
caustic so powerful that 1t is used by
tanners to eat the heir from hides of an
imals, and in dissecting rooms to more
quickly rot the flesh from the bones of
dead subjects. A small quantity of dry
lime upon the tongue, or 10 the eye,prO
duces painful effects; how much more
serious must these effects be on the del~
icate membranes of the stomach. intes-
tines and kidneys, more particularly of
infants and children, and especially
when the lime is taken into the system
day after day, and with almost every
meal. This is said by physicians TO be
one of the causes of indigestion, dyspep-
sia, and those painful diseases of the
kidneys now 50 prevalent. Instances of
the most serious affections of the latter
organs from drinking lime water found
in some sections are noted In every ed
zeal journal.
Adulteration with lime is qaite as
much to be dreaded as with alum, which
Belmont chronicle. [volume] (St. Clairsville, Ohio) 1855-1973, 1887-10-13

has has heretofore received the most
emphatic condemnation from every food
analyst, physician and chemist. for the
reason that, while alum Is probably par
TALLY dissolved and passed off in gas by
the heat of baking. 1t is impossible to
destroy or change the nature of the
lime in any degree. so that the entire
amount in the baking powder passes,
with all its Injurious properties, into
the stomach. When we state that the
chemists have found twelve per cent. or
oneieighth of the entire weight of some
samples of baking powder analysed, to
be lime. the wickedness of the adultera-
tion will be apparent.
Pure baking powders are one of the
chief aids to the cook in preparing per
feet and wholesome food. While those
are to be obtained of well.established
reputation, like the Royal, of whose pur-
ity there has never been a question, it is
proper to avoid all others

PEOPLE who believe In protecting
American labor against the uDder-paid
labor of the Old World are invited to
keep their eyes aud ears open to the
actions and utterances of the leaders OF
opinion In the so-called Democratic
party. At no time within the last
decade have men who direct that party
been so unreserYed in their expressions
in favor of notifications of tariff duties
as at present. The drift of opinion in
that party is all In that direction. and it
is quite certain that if successful this
year and next a radical revision of ths
tariff will be undertaken by the next
Congress.
The elections of this year will have
great influence upon the decisive strug-
gle of next year. Republicans should
realize this, and should make their ar
rangements to be at the election, and to
make their influence felt. No man is SO
poor but he can afford to give half
day to his party and his country.

THE eloquent young statesman from
Guernsey who announced Mr.. Law
renee in the Democratic county conveO-
ton took occasion TO ren ark that Mr.
L. is son of William Lawrence, of
Guernsey.
William Lawrence was one of the
squaw Senator's, who helped subject the
state to an unnecessary expense OF
thousands of dollars in an at
tempt TO keep in seats to which they
had never been chosen certain alleged
members from Hamilton county, and
VINO. when the infamy was fully uncov-
cred, fed the state to prevent the seat
ing of the lawfully elected Senators. No
such crimes against honest elections
have been attempted in Ohio before or
since.-many of the participants are in
the penitentlary. aud others ought to he.
The state was in financial straits, leg
acy received from the Hoadly admins
tration. The treasury was bankrupt,
and these men knew no steps could be
taken to relieve the distressed financial
situation without quorum of both
branches of the Legislature. Their
purpose was to take advantage Of that
fact to coerce an aceuiescence in the
most infamous crimes against the bal
lot ever attempted in Ohio. That was
what William Lawrence did. and we
are assured by his eulogist that Albert
Lawrence is a worthy son of such
sire.
